I hope you're using ethically sourced, sustainable snakes.
You can't fry beef in snake oil, makes it go tight.
It's a bouef-constrictor
olive oil added to just drained spaghetti… mmmm…
Exactly, make sure it's nicely coated in oil so it doesn't soak up any flavour from the Bolognese sauce. There really are some deviants in this thread.
I will concede olive oil, parmesan, maybe some pine nuts, and some black pepper on spaghetti is 👌 though.
I use olive, walnut, sesame or coconut - always sparingly.
To stop the oil from 'spitting' add a big knob - ooh er missus - of butter.
If cooking fillet or sirloin steak, dry fry it - or oil the steak,not the pan; essential requirement is a cast iron pan - get it really hot, drop steak in, give it just enough time to start releasing it's fat; turn heat down, flip it over and cook for short time - 2 mins for fillet, 4 - 5 for sirloin; turn heat off, leave steak in pan for 3 - 5 mins then mmmm....
How long so it isn't pink? Absolutely no need to eat the animal whilst it still has life in it!
Vegetable and seed oils are ultra processed and couldn’t exist without being subjected to very high temperatures and other unnatural mechanical extraction techniques.
For best nutritional and health benefits use EVOO, butter, lard and beef dripping.
The main thing here is that when dealing with "dieticians" you need to get their professional title correct or the buggers just ignore you.
It's dietitians. They study dietetics 😉

This Zoe podcast about fats has re educated me on what's best to use.
Key points for me: As someone said above in the home setting unless you are reusing oil over and over again in a deep fat fryer you don't have to worry about creating dangerous compounds so can use ev olive for roasting and frying you just lose some of the good stuff by heating.
Besides that I also learned that there's no point particularly in using standard olive oil, apart from cost, unless it's ev as it's been more highly processed and so doesn't have the good stuff in it anymore. They recommend sunflower oil if you want a flavourless oil. Perhaps I will switch to sunflower from rapeseed if it's less likely to be sprayed with glyphosate.
